Kids' Speech Therapy

25/01/2026

Experience matters in speech therapy 💬

An experienced speech therapist brings years of pattern recognition, clinical judgement and problem-solving that you just can’t fast-track.

With decades in the field, they’ve seen a wide range of presentations, know what works (and what doesn’t) and can adapt therapy to ensure your child is progressing well.

That means:
• Faster identification of the underlying issue
• Therapy tailored to your child, not just the textbook
• Confidence in knowing when to persist, change approach or refer on
• Clear, practical guidance for families

Therapists earlier in their careers can be enthusiastic and skilled, but time in the profession adds depth, efficiency and perspective that can make a real difference to outcomes.

With nearly 30 years as a speech therapist, I bring that depth of knowledge and clinical insight to every child and family I work with.

Sometimes, the years really do count.

The NDIA has released its Annual Pricing Review, and once again, there is no increase in price limits for speech pathology therapy for 2025-26. This marks the sixth consecutive year of frozen prices, despite rising costs and clear advice from Speech Pathology Australia regarding risk of market failure.

We know this outcome is deeply disappointing for members. It raises serious concerns for the sustainability of speech pathology services under the NDIS and participant access to vital care.

Speech Pathology Australia is:

> Advocating directly to the NDIA and government
> Calling for CPI-linked annual price indexation
> Engaging directly with the NDIA’s pricing review team
> Pushing for pricing to be determined by an independent authority
> Advocating for increased therapy price limits, and funding for supervision and training and group therapy.

We remain committed to fighting for fair, sustainable pricing for our profession.
